12/17 WWE Friday Night Smackdown Taping Results *SPOILERS*

(1) The New Age Outlaws def. Cody Rhodes & Goldust in a non-title match to kick off Smackdown. Vickie Guerrero interrupted the match near the end and said that it would be every man for himself in the Royal Rumble match. Brother vs. Brother, and friend vs. friend. So it would appear that, in addition to the tag champions being in the Rumble, the Outlaws will also participate. Billy Gunn rolled up Cody with a handful of tights for the win.
